On October 25, 2026, Iran-backed Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for missile attacks targeting Saudi oil facilities and airports. The Saudi-led coalition reported intercepting two missiles aimed at Yanbu and Taif, with debris falling in Jeddah, Taif, and Rabigh. The Houthis specifically targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh and several oil sites, denying any intent to strike Mecca and Medina. This escalation follows the collapse of a 2022 truce and coincides with heightened tensions linked to the ongoing Iran conflict. The Saudi Interior Ministry confirmed that some missiles struck coast guard sites in Aden. The situation remains fluid, with ongoing military actions and no immediate confirmation of damage to the targeted facilities.
